Upgrading my two laptop computers I noticed this:

WARNING: base: local (3-4) is newer than maboxlinux (3-3)

Although it has no issues updating and running after update I’m curious as to why this is happening as both laptops are running a base(?) Mabox installation with no other programs installed, minus Jellyfin (for my media server) and Barrier (a virtual keyboard/mouse switch which I use to maintain the laptops from my desktop computer.)

Any ideas?

Just ignore it. In time this will be fine.

I have this…

```auto
-> base: local (3-4) is newer than maboxlinux (3-3)
 -> roxterm: local (3.17.2-1) is newer than AUR (3.15.3-1)

```

Just ignore it, or run:

```auto
yay -S base

```
